I think we both were lol. In all honesty that's a nasty setup, should do some work. By any chance did you use a v6 body for that build?

I bought the car with a 408 already in it. I had a frc corvette that I just got rid of. I may want another vett unless i get a clean firehawk formula body. Yes it's a v6 body but my plans are to buy a c6 vette and start swapping. I'm having fun with the car first! I do want to see what it can do in a fbody first.

Gotcha. It's a big step down (quality wise) from a C6 lol but they're fun. Super raw cars. I think you may end up liking it how it is

Yeah it is but I do like the fbody and had so many of em. That I may just look for a clean firehawk body when time is right. The body on the car is very clean no Crack dash all ebony interior. 6spd car. I'll try to load of some videos and pics of the car on Friday when I'm off work.

Bolt on ls1 and bolt on 5.0 is a good race generally

Sounds good! I think it's roughly about 5hrs. Maybe a bit more depending on traffic or what not. Not to bad.
